Leedy Interiors is a full service interior design firm that designs and manages projects from conception to completion. We specialize in high-end residential design, sharing relationships with a close network of trusted professionals and talented architects, contractors, and vendors.
What sets us apart? We never push our design style on our clients. At LI, we believe that homes should reflect the homeowner, and how they live within their home. We have a thorough on-boarding process to really get to know and understand our clients- what they love, how they live, and how they envision their future in their home, integrating the unique stories of our clients into every space we design. The end result is a culmination of our clients personalities shining through, along with our expertise and vision.
Our passion for original interiors, exceptional attention to detail, and professionalism set us apart from other firms in our area. From finishes to furniture, art, and accessory procurement, our skilled team delivers comfort, functionality and beauty to the lives of our clients.

With over ten years experience, I would love the opportunity to help you achieve your dream home. We all are extremely busy running our lives, and most of us probably do not have the time to sort out any type of decorating projects. Even if you do have the time, It’s always a good idea to hire a decorator because I can keep you on a budget. I know where to go and have the resources for everything related to your home. This will save you endless amounts of time researching products and brands in a cost-effective manner. I don’t have “one look;" instead I use multiples sources to help create the perfect look for your home. Engaging me as your designer will enhance your vision and truly make it your home; not a showroom home where everyone has the same look.
If you have a team already in place, I will be able to work with you and your contractor and can head off expensive and/or time-consuming design flaws in your overall plans. I also have many local home improvement professional contacts which will spare you the headaches of trying to identify reliable landscapers, contractors, plumbers, electricians, etc.
Some projects I can offer, but not limited to, are:
Full House-- interior and exterior design
Selecting paint colors
Selecting fabrics for custom upholstery work, bedding or window treatments
Gutting homes/rooms
Design outdoor living spaces, including pools and spas
Seasonally decorate / decorate for events and Holidays
Please let me know if you need any assistance with your current or future home projects.
Thank you,

Whether you are designing to stay or staging to sell, it’s hard to admit when you need some help in either of these aspects in your NJ home. I can help you create the functional space that you envision and deserve and love to live in. Hiring an interior designer can be a little intimidating.
My goal is to build a long term relationship with you so whenever you have any design needs in the future you feel comfortable enough to call me. Interior design takes more than just selecting paint and furniture. There is project management, budgeting, and problem solving. I make it a point to communicate and work with you to get your space to where you want it to be. While most of the work takes place before the first installation or purchase, I can help make this process as stress-free and enjoyable as possible.
If you are selling your home, I can simplify and enhance focal points in your home so that it will sell quickly and at maximum price. With full access to furniture inventory, accessories and artwork, I will customize your home to give it that extra edge for the perfect look. My fresh approach and vision can showcase your home to its fullest potential, so it is market-ready and shows beautifully to all prospective buyers.
The cost of staging a home is always less than the cost of your first price reduction. It is a great investment for homeowners who want to sell quickly and for increased value. A staged home can sometimes sell twice as fast as a non-staged home and possibly as much as 15% more.

My first professional project was designing a bathroom for one of my retail clients.
At the time, I was a salesperson in a popular kitchen and bath showroom.
It was through that first experience with interior design that I realized my industry was lacking what I considered to be a clear, organized process for implementing a design concept.
This fueled my desire for more knowledge, which led me to earn my certification in bathroom design (CBD), then kitchen design (CKD) and ultimately, a Bachelor's Degree in Interior Design (BFA).
Recently, I earned a certification in Aging In Place (CAPS) - a designation that allows me to modify my client's homes so that they may stay in them, for the long term.
I now bring an educated opinion to the table.
My process is clear-cut, organized and something I am proud to share with my clients, as it saves them time, money and stress.
Along the way, I've made mistakes, as all successful people do.
But each experience has been an opportunity to improve the way that I do business.
I am always looking to the future in order to make the design experience more beneficial for my clients, more efficient for my company and more personally rewarding for myself.
Design should be a fun, creative process, for everyone involved:
a concept that differentiates "doing one's job" from living one's life with joy.
A couple recently told me that I was their "Rock Star Designer".
I like the sound of that.
Let's be rock stars!

Our designs are a confluence of items that utilize all price points, style eras, and design philosophies. From classic to contemporary, flea-market treasure to fine antique, interior design is a living art—it’s meant to be enjoyed aesthetically, but not at the sacrifice of comfort. That's why at Nicole Forina Home, we work with you in a collaborative process to ensure a custom interior that conveys your unique story.
Of course we want you to be thrilled with the finished product, but we want you to feel likewise about the process. We believe in honesty—we don’t conceal pricing; we don’t hide commissions. And we put an emphasis on customer service—the journey is just as important as the destination. We’re providing our clients with a lifestyle and a service—transparency and support are the cornerstones of our beliefs.

LM Interior Design, LLC

Mendham, NJ Bedroom Design Professionals

September 29, 2012

"LM Design was hired to update our kitchen--new appliances, lighting, countertops, faucets, sink. From the start Lynn Masiello was the ultimate professional, providing good design suggestions, detailed plans and even a three ring binder which organized the scope of the project. Lynn met every deadline, was available for every phone call, question and delivery. Her subcontractor was terrific; he and his team did quality work in a timely way. Lynn takes pride in her work and we were the beneficiaries of that commitment to quality. She met our design and budget considerations and we are very pleased with the result. As an added bonus Lynn did all the leg work, taking our ideas and bringing us samples, saving us the time and confusion of trying to narrow down all the options. It was an absolute pleasure to do business with her and she will be on speed dial the next time we have a project."

"I bought a consultation from Jared through one of the deal sites (cant remember which one) and i found him to be very personable. He listentened to what i wanted (which was more of floor planning than anything else) and gave me some suggestions. I have even kept in touch with me after the visit, updating him on any new changes i made based on his suggestions. I dont have the budget to hire him to actually redesign my space but if the need should arise i would keep him in mind."

J. Stephens Interiors

Mendham, NJ Bedroom Design Professionals

February 24, 2013

"I interviewed three different design firms when I moved to New Jersey in 2004. I hired J Stephens Interiors to design just 3 rooms for me. I was so thrilled with the outcome, I wound up hiring them to design every room in the entire house! This was not an easy task. Our home was historically significant, but it had fallen into the hands of previous owners with just plain bad taste. The design project included major renovation, space planning, furniture purchases, wall and window treatment, etc etc. My taste is best described as modern traditional with an Asian influence! J Stephens was a firm that could somehow take my design taste and transform my house to exactly as I wished it to be! And that is a gift! Some designers will impose their taste on clients but I wanted a designer that could understand my taste and use that in the design. J Stephens was very easy to work with and I was so pleased, I rehired them to design my new house when we moved to Virginia in 2009! Once again, they did a fantastic job! My home is beautiful!!"
